An SG guitar for worship!? Love it I was crazy enough to use a Flying V guitar for worship because of the whammy bar and that week we needed one 😂

He was created to defeat Michael and his angels in heaven. He was created by Lucifer. When that failed, dragon, Satan, and his angels all fell from heaven. Never to return again. Where did the dragon go, if Satan fell to the earth, along with his angels? The dragon wounded up in China. Where the dragon is revered. The dragon is still Satan's power. Satan wants his dragon back and has plans for his return. That is why he hates China and wants to see China in a war for the return of his powerful dragon. Satan, as you know has been in prison for a 'thousand' years. Powerless. Without the red dragon, that is now in China's possession.

Amen and glory

It is amazing to se a pastor tell a bold face lie..

Praised be The Scapegoat of all human scapegoating follies, Laudetur Jesus Christus, Soli Deo Gloria!

Came from "Paul and homosexuality" short video, and to be honest it sounds horribly wrong until I came to see this video. Now I can see where you are coming from and why you think this way. I appreciate you for finishing with "take this with grain of salt and it's my opinion". Paul had said this too where it is of HIS OPINION like "better be celibate than marry". Sincerely, I don't think God supports gay lifestyle, because it wasn't His original intended design, that's why it's a sin. Same can be said for fornicators, also not of God's intended design. Sex is to be a gift after marriage, and a cherry on top, procreation. Experience what its like to be father just like He is our Father, becoming a husband just like He is to the church. ALL of us came from ancestors nearly 6,000 years ago, if one of our ancestors decided to become gay and did not procreate, thousands year of generations would never have existed. All those relationships that God could have with are lost. He is God of Living. The biggest question, are gay people who believe in Christ and struggle with their lifestyle until they die saved? I would assume yes. What about gay people who embrace gay lifestyle and believe in Christ, I don't know the answer to that. It is like serving two masters.

I think 1 Cor also said don't be deceived, drunkards, fornicators, homosexuals, etc will not inherit God's Kingdom. Respectfully, don't you think it's predatory to encourage children to be injected with hormone changers and go through transitions? God made them to be who they are, and they decide (or were influenced) that they didn't like who they are and want to be of a different gender. An implication that God must have made a mistake.

Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 are all to the Jews, and describing the 7 year Great Tribulation. Jesus told the Jews that he would not return until they asked/begged for him. Matthew 23:39 - “for I say to you (the Jews), you shall see Me no more till you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!’ ” You cannot mix the church/gentiles with the Jews/Israel. The church will be raptured before the great tribulation, and there's no precursor, it is imminent. The earth is 6,000 years old and about to go into the 1,000 year blessing, this timeline mirrors God spending 6 days on creation and resting on the 7th. We are at the end of the church age and approaching the fullness of the gentiles for the rapture to take place. The part in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 referring to, look up your redemption draws near, is the second coming at the end of the tribulation. The tribulation will complete 2 things: 1. It is to prove to the Jews that Jesus was and is the messiah, and for them to believe in Him. Zachariah 12:10 2. For Jesus to enact the title deed to Earth taking possession of the earth back from Satan. Remember when Jesus was in the desert for 40 days and the devil offered him the kingdoms of the Earth, Jesus didn't say those aren't yours to offer, because satan DOES have possession of the earth (Ephesians 6:12). Matthew 4:8-9 - Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.” The scroll with 7 seals in Revelation, is the same little book from Daniel that he was told to seal up until 'The End' (Daniel 12:4 - 'But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.'), that scroll/little book/title deed to Earth is what Jesus received when he was crucified and rose from the dead. It is what He is waiting to enact at the end of the church age, and the fullness of the gentiles, and Jesus will use it in the great tribulation to take possession of the world back. Here is the verse where Jesus takes possession of the earth back from the devil in the Tribulation... Revelation 11:15 - Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!”

"Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins." Hebrews 9:22 "For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." 2 Cor. 5:21

Interesting, none of these assertions are defended with scripture.

Amen. thank God for honesty and transparency. The bible gives so much, and the answers our hard questions

“Our problem is not - are our desires satisfied or not? Our problem is - how do we know what to desire?” [Slavoj Zizek]

Unbelievable that people still buy into this BS in 2024, but I guess philosophy, anthropology, history and physics are too hard for the average person to even attempt to understand. Btw the Bible explicitly says that women shouldn’t talk in church lol

I want to believe your interpretation, but I'm nagged by the fact that the scholars of the various Bible translation committees (NASB, NIV, ESV, etc) chose the word "eternal." Why is that? As someone who doesn't know Greek, I'm reluctant to accept that the many translations that have been through the fire of informed peer review are just wrong. Surely these translators understand the nuances of context and are doing their best to choose the closest English match. Some universalists prefer "age enduring" in this context, but I wonder if this is driven more by desire than sound textual considerations.

I listened to all of this and you give an interesting interpretation however respectfully I think this is a contortion of scripture. Aionios can also mean everlasting - that is without end. Especially when reading other scriptures alongside Matthew 24:46 - it is clear some will be tormented forever. Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels (Matthew 25:41) The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. (Revelation 20:10) And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15) And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt. (Daniel 12:2)

No. You are way too nice. I prefer the to me obvious translation of Aion to be Eon. Words such as eternity eternal everlasting forever and ever do not exist in a properly translated Scripture. The five eons. HUGE difference HUGE truth. Since the flood we have been in the third what Paul called the most wicked eon. Two GOOD eons remain: the 1000 years and the new heavens and earth, after which our Lord abolishes death and everyone is vivified: given life beyond death. God is love and has no fellowship with eternal punishment. The latter demonic doctrine is Satan having fellowship with bible translators. The evil on Islam can't hold a candle to this doctrine.

Matters who is in your space. Problem isn’t that people are alone. It’s that people only want to associate with people they agree with. Shout over people they disagree with and refuse to look further than the room they’ve pigeonholed themselves in.

You do such great theology, Jeremy! Thank you for pointing out the use of "kolasin"'; it sure makes a big difference. I really like to think of "punishment" as the fire of God's love. God wants us to be completely one with him, but that requires a huge transformation in us, and transformation is painful, as anyone who has undertaken deep therapy will know.

Irenaeus, Origin, Gregory of Nyssa in fact all of the Cappadocian Fathers would agree with you that it is correctly translated “age” … but they spoke Greek as their native tongue so it was easy for them!

When I looked through the Bible for evidence that any writer believed there would be infinite punishment, mk 9.48 (from is 66) and rev 4.11 don't cut it, they're too open to interpretation. It was only mt 25.46. But when I looked up the original Greek and saw aionios, my immediate reaction was, "hold on a minute ..." Even kolasis threw me at first because its used in modern Greek to mean heII. But when I looked it up in a koine dictionary, it basically said "1 pruning 2 chastisement". What the heII!? How come Bible translations are so misleading, not only here but in lots of places? It's really disappointing.

She does not know or even sound like she knows what she is talking about - Kamala’s sister?

Can i ask what kind a priest are you please. Do you Actually follow the bible or are you into fairytale and following the world 🌎

The 16:9-10 is authentic and is not a "later tag." 99.8% of the manuscripts contain Mark 16:9-20 Only three don't: Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus and 12 century GA 304 The evidence from the church fathers favors Mark 16:9-20 and is even earlier than the oldest manuscript evidence. The earliest clear evidence for Mark 16:9-20 as part of the Gospel of Mark is in Chapter XLV First Apology of Justin Martyr (c. 160). In a passage in which Justin treats Psalm 110 as a Messianic prophecy, he states that Psalm 110:2 was fulfilled when Jesus' disciples, going forth from Jerusalem, preached everywhere. His wording is remarkably similar to the wording of Mk. 16:20 and is consistent with Justin's use of a Synoptics-Harmony in which Mark 16:20 was blended with Lk. 24:53. Justin's student Tatian (c. 172), incorporated almost all of Mark 16:9-20 into his Diatessaron, a blended narrative consisting of material from all four canonical Gospels. Irenaeus wrote book two of "Against Heresies", when Eleutherius was bishop of Rome (174-189)-at least a century before Vaticanus was produced. There Irenaeus wrote, “Also, towards the conclusion of his Gospel, Mark says, ‘So then, after the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sits on the right hand of God” (3.10.5). Irenaeus’s copy of Mark obviously included Mark 16:9-20, since he is quoting here from Mark 16:19. Bruce Metzger considered this passage to be canonical... "There seems to be good reason, therefore, to conclude that, though external and internal evidence is conclusive against the authenticity of the last twelve verses as coming from the same pen as the rest of the Gospel, the passage ought to be accepted as part of the canonical text of Mark” (Bruce Metzger, “The Canon of the New Testament: Its Origin, Development, and Significance” (p. 270). In Sinaiticus, four replacement pages contain Mark 14:54-16:8 and Luke 1:1-56 which are not written by the scribe of the surrounding pages. It was probably made by the manuscript’s supervisor and proofreader (known as a diorthōtēs). Although initially this copyist wrote at a rate of 635 letters per column, in Luke he drastically compressed his lettering at the rate of 690 letters per column. But near the end of Mark, he did the opposite: he expanded his lettering in the first column of the third page. Without taking this step, after accidentally omitting most of Mark 16:1, the diorthōtēs would have reached the end of v. 8 in this column, leaving the next column blank. But, not wanting to do so, he not only expanded his lettering, but also made the decorative design after 16:8 uniquely emphatic. Short version: It appears that 9-20 was removed from Sinaiticus.

I doubt we definitively know whether the authors of the epistles were referring to men or both men and women in most instances. I think the NRSVue could have at least left in the footnotes the understanding that the Greek reads as “brothers.” Same with the bit that has been interpreted as condemning people having homosexual relations. Does Paul condemn tops and bottoms…a very literal reading seems to imply that. The idea that he just did not condone homosexuality because he did not know of mutually loving relations between people of the same gender seems like a stretch but I’ve heard this a lot.

Irenaeus, Origin, Gregory of Nyssa and many others would completely agree with you brother … preach and teach that truth! The idea of ECT would have the Sermon on the Mount in complete disagreement with the Olivet Discourse …. Jesus would be contradicting himself and that cannot be true. The Father “is perfect” and we are to imitate his perfection because he forgives his enemies not because he tortures them.

Cut your hair. God bless you 🙌

You started off saying atonement is all it is. Then later you said it is an incomplete description.

Excellent, Jeremy! I needed just this. I wasn't quite grasping how the Giradian view of the atonement comes together, and this helps a lot. Very interesting the gap between the LXX's reading of Isa. 53:10 and the Masoretic. Shows the degree to which the texts were in flux at this time. Makes quite the difference!

Thank you, I think that was the most clear explanation I heard and I think I finally understand the core Idea behind the New Perspective. Now it's time to look into the details :)

What are you Lady,a Misandrist?.You think that all Men are bad?.Well let Me tell you something,that cuts both ways sweetheart!.You clearly hate us men,and we hate you women right back!John M Guinto

The Essence Christ is essentially vegetarian

The argument you are fighting aside, there are things God cannot do. God cannot sin, it is outside his nature. God’s nature does “limit” him in ways, but it is no outside external force that does so, that would be considered greater than God.

Emmanuel God with us Jesus king of Kings and Lord of Lords He is the way the truth and the life

❤❤❤❤

I agree. But. He makes it sound kinda accidental. I think this concept is very deliberate. It keeps folks guilty and giving money instead of sheding blood for salvation

The stole is the sign of a priest. This is stolen authority by a guy who is desperate to appear cool

not when eve was created differently n each

Amazing. Thank you

Merry Christmas Commons!!! 🕯

I clicked thinking he was gonna talk about the game lol

Here is the pesher of Rev. 11: 15. At noon on Tuesday, June 23, 44 AD, the trumpet was blown for the last septennium of the Annas jubilee. In the Cathedral at Ephesus, Matthew, speaking for Agrippa the Younger, said, "The western Herodian party in the Diaspora has been founded, under Agrippa the Younger. The associated Christian party under Jesus has been founded at the same time. Agrippa the Younger is head of celibate communities and will have the title of Agrippa II". ///Here is the pesher of Rev. 12: 1-.5. (1)-- At midnight beginning Friday, March 19, 6AD, Joseph the David crown prince & acolyte, stood on the platform in the Qumran vestry, & Mary, taking the place of Elizabeth as initiator of Gentiles, was vested by the 12 year old John the Baptist, whose father Zechariah had just been killed. Elizabeth was with the excluded at the north of the vestry, in mourning. Mary wore an ascetic's headband and a circlet with the emblem of Joseph. (2)-- Mary went to the space at the north of the vestry, where Gentiles as outsiders were taught. She preached to prepare them for membership. She enacted their entry to membership as 'birth'. (3)-- Joazar Boethos the high priest came to the platform. He took the chair as Pharisee High Priest of the nationalist triarchy, one who gave initiation to proselytes. He kept the uncircumcised down at Grade 10. On his headband was the emblem of a Pharisee who gave only non-celibate initiations. (4)-- He then took the uncircumcised Gentile admitted by Joseph down to the Queen's House, forbidding him to come closer to the Qumran buildings. He laicised Joseph. As Mary, at 3 am, began the ceremony at which the 12 year old Jesus was to be separated from his mother, the Pharisee stood in the place of the levite, & after the 1st part of the ceremony declared that Jesus was illegitimate. (5)-- But at the same hourJoazar ceased to be high priest, Jesus became the legitimate heir, and was hailed as the potential Messiah. Joseph was permitted to return to Qumran, where he was to be head of the Herodian school for Gentiles under Egyptian discipline. At 4 am Jesus came under monastic rules, & was taken up to Qumran to be presented to Ananus the Elder, the new Saduccee high priest. He was taken into the vestry to stand before the platform. /// I will now claify some terminology. 'WOMAN'-- A woman who was or was acting in the position of Chief Woman in the community. In Rev. 12: 1, it was Mary acting in the position of her superior Elizabeth the wife of Zechariah who had just been killed. 'MOON'-- A person, the female partner of 'the Sun'. As the Sun was the high priest Michael, his wife Elizabeth, the Chief Woman, who acted as 'Mother' to Gentiles, was the Moon. When Mary was 'clothed with the sun', she was being vested by John the Baptist. When the moon was under her feet', she was replacing Elizabeth as Chief Woman. 'MOURNING'-- A short term Nazarite vow, taken by married persons, male & female, in which they separated from society. The 'crown of 12 stars'-- In verse 1, Mary wore 'a crown of Star 12', Joseph. He, as the David, was called 'Star 12' when taking part in monthly prayers. 'LABOR'-- The ascetic discipline of a Saduccee. 'GIVE BIRTH'-- To give first initiation ro a 12 year old boy, or full initiation to a man at the age of 23. 'DRAGON'-- Pseudonym for Pharisee High Priests. Joazar Boethos in 6 AD was in a nationalist triarchy of Dragon (Priest), Calf (Prophet) and Beast (King). 'RED'-- A non-monastic priest officiating in the west only. In verse 3, it was Joazar Boethos. Red was the color for Autumn, equal to 6pm, & the west, the season for the main orthodox Jewish festivals. 'HEAD'-- A headband worn around the upper forehead on an ascetic, containing the letters showing the grade. 7 heads or 'Head 7' was a headband with the letter for 7 worn by a priest or Scribe of the circumcision party who initiated proselytes to Grade 7. 'HORN'-- 'Horn 10' (10 horns) meant the man who kept uncircumcised Gentiles down at Grade 10. In verse 3, it was Joazar Boethos. 'TAIL'-- The colored banner indicating the season used by the visiting priest. 'THIRD'-- The first of 3 divisions, those of fee paying Gentiles, who advanced to initiation, paying a denarious in 3 installments. 'THROWING DOWN'-- The outer hall ofthe Qumran monastery, to which excluded members were 'thrown down'.

Jeremy, I hung out at Commons Church some 8 or 9 years ago, and I remember you talking about Girard back then. For decades I've resisted hearing what Girard had to say because I heard him proposing yet another grand theory that would supposedly explain the whole of human culture, and when I get a whiff of that I just stop listening. Serendipity has brought me back to his ideas, and it looks like his theology is just what I've always wanted! This is a big thing for me - I've got a lot of work to do! Thank you for this video series, it's a great place for me to start learning. And Merry Christmas to you! A theology that actually works is a wonderful Christmas present for me! Elizabeth Morton

SE LAH ARES is The DRagon CADMUS THE GREAT

God bless all those who have been praying for him

Here is something that God CANNOT DO: "That by two immutable things, in which IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD TO LIE, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us" Hebrews 6:18

Can you explain? It may not be the “point” But the Bible does say God will create a New Heaven and a New Earth, Right? Can you expound?

Nice overview. There's certainly something interesting about process thought, God as experiencing reality with us is a different, but provocative way to see divinity. I kind of like it. I think where process theology, as relayed in this video, lost me was when it introduced the moving away from God as Father. We then have an issue of making divinity an intellectual endeavor. Moving towards a less anthropomorphic description of God makes it much harder to relate to God, sort of defeating the purpose.

I'm on another planet, but does God exist on my planet? I always wondered.
